Chandler Riggs as Carl Grimes, Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes and Norman Reedus as Daryl Dixon are a trio of badasses on the collector's edition of Entertainment Weekly. Which cover is your favorite?

Little Carl Grimes sure has grown up! Also revealed by executive producer Greg Nicotero is that the season 4 premiere will feature 150 Walkers! Fellow executive producer Scott Gimple also drops a cryptic hint about the "mother nature" threat that will feature this season that now leads me to believe that it's not actually the weather that will be plaguing Rick's band of survivors but disease. Said Gimple, "The new threat is something you can’t just stab in the face. You can’t talk sense to it. You can’t make a truce with it. It’s beyond all that. It would be a threat in any world, but in this world it is much more terrifying." The lead in for that quote is that the threat described is located inside the walls of the prison.

In the highly anticipated third season, Rick and his fellow survivors continue to seek refuge in a desolate and post-apocalyptic world and soon discover that there are greater forces to fear than just the walking dead. The struggle to survive has never been so perilous. Season 3 also introduces new characters, including the Governor (David Morrissey) and fan-favorite Michonne (Danai Gurira), along with her zombie pets.

Based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics, The Walking Dead stars Lincoln, Sarah Wayne Callies, Laurie Holden, Steven Yeun, Norman Reedus, Chandler Riggs, Lauren Cohan, Scott Wilson, IronE Singleton, Melissa McBride, Morrissey and Gurira. The series is executive produced by showruner Glen Mazzara, Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd and David Alpert with Greg Nicotero, Denise Huth and Evan Reilly as co-executive producers.
